STAY ALERT! They walk among us

My daughter and I went through the McDonald's take-out window and I gavethe girl a £5 note. Our total was £4.20, so I also handed her a Twentypence piece She said, 'you gave me too much money.' I said, 'Yes I know,but that way you can just give me a pound back.'She was puzzled and went to get the manager who asked me to repeat myrequest. I did so, and he handed me back the 20 pence and said 'We're sorrybut they could not do that kind of thing.' The girl then proceeded to giveme back 80 pence in change!Do not confuse the staff at MacD's.

I thought for a minute, and said that we hadthe largest one GARADOR made at that time, a 1/2 horsepower. He shook hishead and said, 'Madam, you need a 1/4 horsepower.' I responded that 1/2 waslarger than 1/4 and he said,'NOOO, it's not. Four is larger than two..'We haven't used Garador repair since. Happened in Moor Park ,Nr WatfordUK

My mate was staying at home when his Mum & family went on holiday, he left his keys indoors & they left to go.I went round & he had smashed the small piece of glass in his front door & was repairing it by screwing the front of a box of sugar puffs over gap!! There must have been about twenty screws & nails (this is a true story by the way).

He was also in his garage once repairing a puncture, he was taking hours so I went & knocked & he was sat in the garage looking all confused.He said he'd been attempting to fix his puncture for about two hours & it just wouldn't stick, he'd left the back of the patch on lol.
